does anyone know a lot about quotes from nap?&nbsp-&nbspLy, 20/05/2002 20:32:51 hey i was wondering if anyone knows the quote about freedom. i think it was said during the time he was ruling austria when i think he sent a letter to his brother. it went something like,
"over time i have come to a realization... that only a hand full of men know what freedom is while the rest of them want to be ruled with an iron fist...",
i'm not sure if it is exactly like this but it went something like it. any help would be appreciated

I seem to recall the quote having been in there during the mid to late years of the Empire. I haven't a clue on the source of it, though. It certainly doesn't sound like something he said on St. Helena. I would guess he may have said it around 1810. Good luck, hope you find something! Cordially, Katherine
